A poetic new essay collection in which the symbols of the tarot brush
up against life in a changing world.
The Tarot de Marseille is a 16th-century set of playing cards, the deck
on which the occult use of tarot was originally based. When Jessica
Friedmann bought her first pack, the unfamiliar images sparked a deep
immersion in the art, symbols, myths, and misrepresentations of
Renaissance-era tarot.
Over the years that followed, and as tarot became a part of her daily
rhythm, Friedmann’s life was touched by floods and by drought, by
devastating fires and a pandemic, creating an environment in which the
only constant was change.
Twenty-Two Impressions: notes from the Major Arcana uses the Tarot de
Marseille as a touchstone, blending historical research, art history,
and critical insights with personal reflections. In these essays,
Friedmann demonstrates how the cards of the Major Arcana can be used as
a lens through which to examine the unexpectedness — and subtle beauty
— of 21st-century life.
